F35 Lightning In The Jedi Transition
The Joint Strike Fighter, the F35 Lightning is the latest aircraft that the United States has built. This stealth aircraft was designed for air superiority and ground support.
I was thrilled to see this beauty enter the Jedi Transition. He came in very low as can be seen with the shadow of the jet not to far below on the canyon walls.

F35 Lightning In The Jedi Transition

The F‑35 slices through the tight rocky corridor with a predatory grace, its matte gray skin absorbing the canyon light rather than reflecting it. You can feel the raw velocity in the way the jet’s form seems to compress the air around it—an angular, muscular silhouette threading a path that looks far too narrow for something moving this fast. The canyon walls glow with warm desert tones, and the aircraft’s presence feels almost surreal against them, a streak of engineered power knifing through ancient stone.
The angle of the shot intensifies the sensation of speed and proximity: the Lightning is low, aggressive, and locked into the Jedi Transition with absolute precision, the terrain rushing beneath it. Even without the shadow visible here, the image carries that visceral closeness—the sense that the jet is skimming the earth, riding the contours of the canyon with a pilot’s steady nerve and a machine’s lethal confidence.

Thunderbirds In Formation

Here we have a capture of the US Air Force Thunders Birds flying in tight formation. It blows my mind that these men pilot these fast jets while flying just feet away from each other, and in some cases it appears to be inches.
I like this capture as it shows the Thunderbirds in tight formation in the skies above Fairfield California at Travis Air Base.

Thunderbirds In Formation

The Thunderbirds slice through the sky in a razor‑tight diamond, their white fuselages gleaming like polished bone against the deep blue above. You can almost feel the heat rolling off their engines—the low, thrumming growl that vibrates in your chest as they surge forward in perfect unison, each jet holding its place with surgical precision.
Sunlight flashes along their wings, catching the bold red and blue markings that streak across each aircraft, turning them into streaks of color suspended in motion. The formation feels impossibly close—so tight it seems the pilots could reach out and tap the next canopy—yet the entire group moves as one fluid shape, carving a clean, powerful line over Fairfield’s open sky at Travis Air Force Base.
There’s a visceral rush in the image: speed, discipline, and raw aerial power captured in a single heartbeat.

F35 Lightning Vertical In The Valley

The Joint Strike Fighter, the F35 Lightning is the latest in high performance aircraft that the United States has built. This is a stealth aircraft that was designed for air superiority and ground support for the US and NATO armed forces.
I was surely amazed at seeing it navigate between the narrow walls of Rainbow Canyon

Storm Brewing

Tunnel View. This has to be my favorite view of nature in all the world. This is located on State Highway 41 and is one of the first views that most of the visitors to the park will see of Yosemite Valley.
Many who visit during the summer see a crystal clear view of the valley all the way back to Half Dome and Clouds rest. These are both obscured in this image.

Grace Cathedral Starburst

Not far from downtown San Francisco up on Nob Hill sits this grand cathedral known as Grace Cathedral.
This image was captured using a tripod with the camera pointing straight up at the majestic ceiling. I had to do some of my best yoga moves to position myself under the view finder to see what I was shooting. I hope you like it.

Garce Cathedral Starburst

This photograph radiates upward like a burst of divine light—an architectural star exploding from the heart of Grace Cathedral’s vaulted ceiling. The camera’s perspective, aimed straight into the heavens, transforms the gothic ribs and arches into a luminous mandala of stone. Each beam of the starburst feels almost tactile, as if you could reach up and run your fingers along the cool, centuries‑old lines of carved geometry.

Light pours through the structure in fine, shimmering threads, catching edges of the ceiling and turning them into glowing spokes. The symmetry is so precise it feels musical—like a chord held perfectly in tune. There’s a sense of stillness, yet also a quiet hum of energy, as though the cathedral itself is breathing.

The stone overhead carries a soft, dusky warmth, the kind that smells faintly of old wood, candle smoke, and time. The starburst effect adds a sharp, crystalline brilliance, creating a contrast between the grounded weight of the architecture and the airy radiance of the light. It’s both intimate and immense—an upward pull that makes your chest expand, as if you’re standing beneath something sacred and alive.

The composition turns the ceiling into a celestial event, a moment where craftsmanship, light, and perspective converge into something that feels almost spiritual.

Cathedral Basilica Of The Immaculate Conception II
The beauty of the craftmanship that is on display in these buildings is amazing.
Construction on this building started in 1902 and completed in 1911. The building was constructed of Indiana limestone and granite from Colorado.
This beautiful building is located just a couple of blocks from the center of Denver.

Cathedral Basilica Of The Immaculate Conception

Light pours through the soaring interior of the Cathedral Basilica, washing the stone and gilded details in a soft, heavenly glow. The Indiana limestone and Colorado granite surfaces feel cool and ancient, their textures carrying more than a century of craftsmanship. Ornate arches rise like sculpted waves, guiding the eye upward toward intricate carvings and warm golden accents that shimmer gently in the ambient light. The space feels hushed, almost reverent — every surface reflecting a quiet, sacred stillness that wraps around you the moment you step inside. The photograph captures that serenity, letting you almost smell the faint trace of polished wood and old stone lingering in the air.

Blue Angels

A tight formation of Blue Angels jets slices across a vivid blue sky, their sleek FA‑18s catching the light as they race forward with crisp precision. The aircraft appear almost weightless, suspended in perfect symmetry, embodying speed, power, and the thrill of aerial mastery. The scene radiates motion, discipline, and pure aviation energy.

Bridge to Obscurity

The lone span of the Golden Gate Bridge emerges from dense, drifting fog, its red/orange steel cutting through the muted gray atmosphere. The roadway disappears into white haze, creating a sense of mystery and isolation. Soft, diffused light wraps the structure, turning an iconic landmark into a quiet, almost dreamlike silhouette.

Bridge To Obscurity

A ribbon of the Golden Gate Bridge rises out of a world made of fog, its orange steel glowing like a warm ember against the cool, silvery haze. The air feels thick and hushed, as if sound itself is swallowed by the drifting mist. The roadway vanishes into white nothingness, creating a sensation of standing at the edge of the known world—where structure meets atmosphere, and the familiar becomes mysterious.
